Welcome to My Blog!


Schooling two active boys has never been more... interesting. That's the word I'm looking for! I love my boys! God has given them the blessing of strong, active bodies and minds. We continually pray the first will remain intact, and the second will remain engaged with Him first, and then the school work. You'll meet my sweet sons, both entirely different, but both loving God to the best of their ability in the way He made them. I lovingly refer to them as my Bell Pepper Boy and my Habanero or Hambone. That should say it all! This blog is an eclectic mix. The events, conversations, and the thoughts behind it all will be in here. Every once in a while I'll try to capture something I don't want to forget. I hope you find things you enjoy. Please let me know if you do! Blessings!

Happy Mother's Day!

Posted in Celebrations!
I'm going to guess the bulk of my friends are, ummm, mothers. (Sorry, Arby, if you're reading along. Please be sure to give The Boss the appropriate Mother's Day spa treatment.) This is a very special time in this house. It's the one time of year I might be able to play the "guilt" card a little more effectively.  :'P  "You wouldn't disobey your Mother on  *dramatic pause for effect*   Mother's Day weekend, would you?" I might say. *grin*

I'll have to sort that out with God later tonight, I suppose.  ;')

Anyway, I wanted to be sure to wish you all a fabulous Mother's Day. I wanted to tell you all how much so many of you pour into me through your little corner of the Blog Universe. I wanted you to know you are wonderful friends and "blog neighbors" to me. Thanks! May your day be blessed in so many ways. May your children rise up and call you. . .AWESOME.  (I never got into the being called blessed thing, myself.)

My lovely family will be enjoying the afternoon with my in-laws when my Dashing Hero finishes serving. It should be a lot of fun. It will be a two-fer day, Mother's Day and Habanero's celebration all in one. Good food and sugar will be had by all, I imagine.  :'D

I've gotten two lovely gifts from my family. My Hero made it possible to put slate tile in our teeny, tiny entryway. I learned a new skill and have a lovely floor. He gets the praises!  *grin* He also got me a lovely, shiny gift. I'll have to see if I can do pictures. It's really, really pretty and shiny!  :'D  At least part of it is as close to eternal as we get on this planet.  ;')

I'd love to hear about your special day! I hope you have great standing ovations from your family members. I hope you hear trumpet fanfare announcing your fantastic arrival wherever you go. If not, like me, you can just imagine it all. It does wonders for your morale!  *lol*

THANK YOU! for remembering that there is at least one homeschooling GUY who reads and writes blogs. I genuinely appreciate it.

So, how did you know I was getting the Boss a pedicure (her all time favorite) for Mother's Day?

I hope you have an awesome Mother's Day! I'm glad that you are my "blogging buddy." Your cheery comments really make my day.
I can imagine saying "You don't want to (whatever) to your mom on Mother's Day, do you?" My dd would just laugh. (grin)

We had a mellow day here. Goose was at the future in-laws, Bean slept a LOT today, Kiddo was playing video games, and DH was working. Let left Mom, pretty much alone for a good part of the day............YAY!!!

I was gifted with geraniums, carnations, Lindt truffles (YUMMM!!!), candles, and 3 John Travolta movies (YUMMMM!!!) LOL

Hey, I want pics of the "shiny" thing you got! : > )

Love and (((HUGS))),

I'm glad that you had a good Mother's Day! Shiny things are always good. I was blessed with a mother-of-pearl cross necklace from my dh and kids. I love it!

Great post, and I hope you had an awesome day! Actually, I'm glad I didn't really hear trumpet fanfare. I'd have passed out from the shock! 8)
